2. Outline Crisp Logic Fuzzy Logic Fuzzy Logic Applications Conclusion “traditional logic”: {true,false}

3. Crisp Logic Crisp logic is concerned with absolutes-true or false, there is no in-between. Example: Rule: If the temperature is higher than 80F, it is hot; otherwise, it is not hot. Cases: Temperature = 100F Temperature = 80.1F Temperature = 79.9F Temperature = 50F Not hot Hot

4. Membership function of crisp logic 80FTemperature HOT 1 If temperature >= 80F, it is hot (1 or true); If temperature < 80F, it is not hot (0 or false). 0 True False

5. Drawbacks of crisp logic The membership function of crisp logic fails to distinguish between members of the same set.

6. Conception of Fuzzy Logic Many decision-making and problem-solving tasks are too complex to be defined precisely however, people succeed by using imprecise knowledge Fuzzy logic resembles human reasoning in its use of approximate information and uncertainty to generate decisions.

7. Natural Language Consider: Joe is tall -- what is tall? Joe is very tall -- what does this differ from tall? Natural language (like most other activities in life and indeed the universe) is not easily translated into the absolute terms of 0 and 1. “ false ” “ true ”

8. Fuzzy Logic An approach to uncertainty that combines real values [0…1] and logic operations Fuzzy logic is based on the ideas of fuzzy set theory and fuzzy set membership often found in natural (e.g., spoken) language.

9. Example: “Young” Example: Ann is 28, 0.8 in set “Young” Bob is 35, 0.1 in set “Young” Charlie is 23, 1.0 in set “Young” Unlike statistics and probabilities, the degree is not describing probabilities that the item is in the set, but instead describes to what extent the item is the set.

13. Benefits of fuzzy logic You want the value to switch gradually as Young becomes Middle and Middle becomes Old. This is the idea of fuzzy logic. the label “fuzzy logic” is used in two senses: (a) narrow sense: fuzzy logic is a logical system (b) wide sense: fuzzy logic is coextensive with fuzzy set theory Applications Control Business Finance

15. Fuzzy Set Operations Fuzzy union (  ): the union of two fuzzy sets is the maximum (MAX) of each element from two sets. E.g. A = {1.0, 0.20, 0.75} B = {0.2, 0.45, 0.50} A  B = {MAX(1.0, 0.2), MAX(0.20, 0.45), MAX(0.75, 0.50)} = {1.0, 0.45, 0.75}

16. Fuzzy Set Operations Fuzzy intersection (  ): the intersection of two fuzzy sets is just the MIN of each element from the two sets. E.g. A = {1.0, 0.20, 0.75} B = {0.2, 0.45, 0.50} A  B = {MIN(1.0, 0.2), MIN(0.20, 0.45), MIN(0.75, 0.50)} = {0.2, 0.20, 0.50}

17. Fuzzy Set Operations The complement of a fuzzy variable with DOM x is (1-x). Complement ( _ c ): The complement of a fuzzy set is composed of all elements’ complement. Example. A = {1.0, 0.20, 0.75} A c = {1 – 1.0, 1 – 0.2, 1 – 0.75} = {0.0, 0.8, 0.25}

18. Crisp Relations Ordered pairs showing connection between two sets: (a,b): a is related to b (2,3) are related with the relation “<“ Relations are set themselves < = {(1,2), (2, 3), (2, 4), ….} Relations can be expressed as matrices <12 1  2   …

19. Fuzzy Relations Triples showing connection between two sets: (a,b,#): a is related to b with degree # Fuzzy relations are set themselves Fuzzy relations can be expressed as matrices …

21. Where is Fuzzy Logic used? Fuzzy logic is used directly in very few applications. Most applications of fuzzy logic use it as the underlying logic system for decision support systems.

22. Fuzzy Expert System Fuzzy expert system is a collection of membership functions and rules that are used to reason about data. Usually, the rules in a fuzzy expert system are have the following form: “if x is low and y is high then z is medium”

24. Fuzzification Two Inputs (x, y) and one output (z) Membership functions: low(t) = 1 - ( t / 10 ) high(t) = t / 10 LowHigh 1 0 t X=0.32Y=0.61 0.32 0.68 Low(x) = 0.68, High(x) = 0.32,Low(y) = 0.39, High(y) = 0.61 Crisp Inputs

25. Create rule base Rule 1: If x is low AND y is low Then z is high Rule 2: If x is low AND y is high Then z is low Rule 3: If x is high AND y is low Then z is low Rule 4: If x is high AND y is high Then z is high

26. Inference Rule1: low(x)=0.68, low(y)=0.39 => high(z)=MIN(0.68,0.39)=0.39 Rule2: low(x)=0.68, high(y)=0.61 => low(z)=MIN(0.68,0.61)=0.61 Rule3: high(x)=0.32, low(y)=0.39 => low(z)=MIN(0.32,0.39)=0.32 Rule4: high(x)=0.32, high(y)=0.61 => high(z)=MIN(0.32,0.61)=0.32 Rule strength
